To It whom it may concern:

Be itknown that I, J OSEPH CAMPBELL, acitizen of the United States, residing at Essex, in the county of Essex and State of Massachusetts, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Childrens Cribs; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

F represents end panels which are hinged by hinges f to the ends of the bottom panel D. The end panels F are provided with hooks g, which engage with eyes .g on the upper part of the crib side A when the end panels are raised to a vertical position, as shown. The end panels fold downward toward each other onto the bottom panel, and the bottom panel folds downward against the crib side.

The panels are preferably formed of frames and a network of any material which is light and strong.

What I claim is I A childs crib, comprising two legs, upper bars and lower bars 6 and slats 6 extending between the legs on one side thereof, blocks C secured to the other sides of the legs behind the lower bar 6, a bar (1 extending between the blocks C, a bottom panel D hinged to the bar cl and having hooks E at its free edge, and panels F hinged to the ends of the said bottom panel, and fastening devices for securing the end panels F to the upper ends of the said legs.
